Symposium 2: Using Video in Health Sciences Teaching and Learning

Abstract

This paper describes the development and use of three computer based learning packages for Health Sciences students. The packages make use of video and self-assessment questions and are designed to support learning in observational movement analysis, manual therapy and stroke rehabilitation. The background and rationale for their development is presented and supported by underpinning literature and the use of the Click and Go Video Tool. The combination of video with other tools, integration and evaluation of these packages is discussed in relation to the need for visual literacy, learning outcomes, student attitudes and efficacy. Conclusions are drawn about their use and proposed further development and evaluation.
